The Leader's Way: Business, Buddhism and Happiness in an Interconnected World
Author(s): HRH the Dalai Lama, Laurens van den Muyzenberg
Born out of a decade of discussion and collaboration between an international management consultant and the head of state and spiritual leader of Tibet, "The Leader's Way" is an inspiring manifesto for leading change which can have an impact at every level. To deal with the world's economic and environmental problems requires a different kind of leadership which see things as they really are and understands the interconnectedness between companies and countries and the world as a whole. "The Leader's Way" contains not only fascinating anecdotes from His Holiness the Dalai Lama, including his meetings with Mao, but also a timely and powerful focus on the importance of combining an economic system with moral values.
